Want a colourful plant that is easy to combine with other garden and aquatic plants? That's the Siberian iris (Iris sibirica). The blue and purple flowers with grass-like leaves are attractive in the garden. The iris can grow to 1 metre tall! The aquatic plant is a waterside and marsh plant. We can plant the plant along the edge (bank) of our pond. Or we can plant the iris up to 40 cm deep in the pond. We can plant this perennial all year round, The flowers bloom in the summer.
We prune the plant slightly to shape it with a pruning shear. We remove old leaves and dirt. To encourage good growth, we add minerals to the pond water and ensure that the water's hardness level (pH value and calcium to magnesium ratio) is maintained. Put the iris in the sun or partial shade.
Striking colours in the garden!
